I bought an odd assortment of parts about 20 years ago, and the body and nose cone of the Stealth were included. No other parts for it.

I just looked at the link to the plans. I have the main pieces. Cutting the balsa pieces would be pretty simple since the balsa sheet with wings/fins is shown in the plans.

I’d either use epoxy, or Beacon Fabri-Tac to attach the wings. I have had good luck with the latter. It has acetone so the plastic should soften and adhere well to paper or wood.

Default Estes Stealth needs fins

Hi, does anyone know if there is a set of laser cut fins available for this model? I have two Stealth's and both need new fins. I have some of the original fins but am missing most of the smaller one's. If you know of some that might be available please post the source. Thank You,

I cannot imagine anyone offering Stealth fin sets for sale. It’s such a rare product, the market would be tiny. But … eRockets sells laser-cut fin sets. They might be willing to cut a set if you sent them the dimensions, or the link to the plans that shows the balsa sheet layout. However, I think it’s going to be pretty pricey if they would agree to make them.
